BASE PROPAGANDA -

Not even the war menace in Eth- iopia is immune from ,, ‘ ‘ion by the partisan Liberal press and politicians in this country. The argument advanced is that only by

‘ ‘ Mr. Mackenalu King in power can the electors be assured that Canada will not become in- volved in any European struggle until i-arliament is called and giv consent. We note with regret that our local contemporary is featuring this malicious claptrsp, de- signed especially so appeal to "the women of Canada, for the protoc- tion of family life and homes, who will have to vote Liberal if they wish to have peace and do not want the bones of their manfolk to be ly- ing in some foreign country."

This represents the nadir of par- tisan political propaganda. it is impossible to conceive of any ap- peal falser, baser, or more crlrnin- ally reprehensible and contemptlhle.

Every informed elector knows that parliamentary tion for en- gaging the country mwar is 60m- pulsory under the Statutes. and no government- today~wouid think ' of any other course. The effort to

‘ , the situation, to excite noedl fear and anxiety, u. hood- wink 1160910 into voting on a "war issue" which does not exist fa in- excusable on any ground. A leader ecndming such tactic: is not wor- ibyteait inOWOaiticn, much less guide the destirriea of the countrv. hpeaeeorinwar. Heputshlb- self outside the pale of decent pub- lic opinion.

Great Britain does not intend to police the world single-handed, and that gem for both military and

' sanctions. She is on the other hand ready to go the limit collectively as decided by the Lea.- gue. Italy does not like this. She screams hysterically: “Sanctions mean war." Presumably she wants people to believe she will fight those who impose sanctions on her, that is all the countries of the League. an insane threat. Mean- while one of England's Big Five banks is recalling credits granted in Italy. The Big Five are Baro- lays, Lloyds. the Midland, the Na- tional Provincial and the West- Jninstcr, all great private and in- dependent banks. but of necessity in close accord on big issues. In this case what one does the others are almost sure to do. Considering Italy's shaky exchange, this alone may bring her to her knees before ever the League council meets to discuss sanctions-Ell.

AN D TREATMENT OF

causes on. rmrws l

ACNE

There is no one subject that seems to interest so many readers as does acne or pimples. When we remem- ber that they come at the age of 14' to 18 and often last till the victim is 30 years of age it is but natural that anything that will prevent or. cure thls- condition is eagerly; sought. I have spoken before about the‘ use of vlostcrol, The treatment isz: start with ten drops each day ln water and increase the dose grao- , ually until at the end of two weeks‘ 20 drops are being taken daily. Con- l tinue to take 20 drops daily for two‘ more weeks. This “four "veeks" treatment was found t0 be very suc- cessful in a number of University students.

Cutting down on fried and starchy foods is another method of preventing pimples.

_It would seem that as boys and girls enter into manhood and womanhood ‘with the natural gland changes that occur at this tLrne. certain foods do not seem to be handled by the digestive system as completely as they should be, with the result that the blood becomes overloaded with these "lncomplete“ products, and pimples occur.

Far, foods cause much skin irrita- tion including pimples and bolls. The foods rich in fats are: butter, cream, fat meat, yolks of eggs, nuts, mackerel, herring, salmon, sardines. goose, pork, cheese, chocolate and

cocoa.

‘Tats act in two ways to cause pimples, boils and sometimes eczema: first, large amounts of fat in the food slow down the move- ment of digestion and interfere with the digestion of the other foods so that putrefactlon-going bad-of undigested food may take place in the intestine. Second, lf great amounts of fat are eaten the body may not be able to handle it at all at once and products of this incomplete oxidation (burning up)

Four Horses Ride Again

Technically, Italy and Ethlgplg, are still at peace, even though the armies of both countries are mobll. ized and on the move and a few random shots have been exchanged.

sir.-It is now many yea-rs since I read that standard work of llc tiorr, "The Hoosier Bchoolmas , yet, one incident at least, remains in my memory. It is the case of Ralph, the s‘ “ youthful teacher and Bud Jones, the big strong bully of the school and village. .- Bud told Ralph that he must not be nice or even civil to his (Bud's) girl, for he might "cut him out." Ralph said he had no intention of trying to win his girl, but he was in

one, especllrlly to the weaker sex. "Promise me now." says Bud. "that you will be unclvll toward ner

"Then you must fight me." “I'll fight," replied Ralph. "You fight me!" You know you would be gnwked out quicker than you could say “Jack Robinson.” “Well Bud, I'll fight as well as I can, and as long as I can, but I will llot do s. dlshqrlorable cowardly act for fear of getting a beatlns!’ "Give me your hand," says Bud "You are a brave, honorable man, and I am but a, mean bullyl"

That is a lesson from fiction, now here's one from fact: -

One day I passed a school at play hour. There was s. crowd of pupils, big and small. A fight was going Oil between a his boy and a small one. The little fellow was clearly on the defensive, but he fought without, sign of fear, though he was receiving severe punishment. There were several big boys in the crowd. but they merely watched the fight. That little fellow, I was sure, would not give in till knocked out. Each blg boy, no doubt, did not want to make an enemy oi’ the big fighter. but there did not seem to be enough friendship or unity among them. tn loin and stop the fight.

Now, here are the great nations of the world, acting just like those simple inexperienced school boysl A poor, weak, unarmed country is being attacked by a great power. ‘That weak nation is looking for help against foreign conquest and tyranzny. A combined eflort by the great powers can prevent a conflict that may again set Europe ablaze. Is honor not as desirable irl nations as in individuals?

Reading recently 1e Bulletin des Rlecherches Historiqueg of Quebec I came across an illustration of the part played in politics by whiskey and money in an election of a cen- tury since.
